I have been working with children since the age of ten, be it through babysitting family and then branching out, through teaching dance classes, working at numerous summer camps and then becoming a certified infant, toddler, preschool lead teacher. I am certified through EEC. I also spent a summer volunteering at Camp Sunshine. This is a camp for families with a child who is terminally ill. This camp is a place where the families can go and be among others who are facing the same everyday issues. They go to camp and have the opportunity to enjoy their time without having to worry about anything else. I enjoy working with children of all ages especially 1 month - 15 years of age. Some of the activities I enjoy doing with the children under my care are arts & crafts, going for walks around the neighborhood, playing at the park, going on field trips to the farm, zoo or other such places and reading stories. I was born in Worcester, MA and have lived in Auburn, MA my whole life. I have experience working with children who have special needs and typical children. If you are interested, please feel free to e-mail me or call my cell phone. Thank you for taking the time to look at my profile.

Elizabeth was fantastic with our kids. She brought activities for our daughter and was a hero with her ability to put our notoriously fussy 10 month old to sleep with ease. Our daughter still talks about Ms. Elizabeth and how much fun she had. She made our trip by putting us at ease with our children while we attended a wedding. Our only complaint is that she doesn't live in FL so we can have her watch our kids more often!

Hi! My name is Caroline, and I have years of experience working with children through teaching, nannying, and babysitting. I graduated from Fitchburg State University with a degree in Early Childhood Education, which has given me a strong understanding of child development and creating positive, engaging environments for children of all ages. For the past two years, I’ve been a full-time nanny for one family, where I’ve helped manage daily routines, planned activities, supported learning and development, and created a safe and nurturing environment for the children. This experience has strengthened my ability to be dependable, patient, organized, and adaptable to each child’s unique needs. I’m passionate about providing a fun, caring, and supportive atmosphere where children feel comfortable and encouraged to learn and grow. I enjoy planning creative activities, helping with homework and routines, and keeping kids active and engaged throughout the day. Families would describe me as reliable, caring, easy to communicate with, and trustworthy. I’m currently looking for babysitting opportunities and would love to connect with a family that’s a great fit!

Caroline was great! Our little guy loved when she would come over and play! She was always punctual and would even bring toys and gifts to help entertain him.

I am an experienced nanny, mother and grandmother who has been working with children since I was very young. I have also spent some years working at a day care before transitioning to working at homes. After years of working full time child care, I am looking for a more part time care position. I adore caring for children and am very comfortable with not just the care aspect, but in providing enrichment and learning activities.

Robin worked for me at a childcare center. She worked in in my infant toddler classroom. She was very personable with the families. She was always at the child's level very loving and comforting. I would definitely hire her again.

Located in wrentham I have been a dedicated nanny for over a year, caring for three children ages 3 to 15. My responsibilities include school drop-offs and pick-ups, helping with homework, and transporting them to various activities. During the summer, I spent full days with them, organizing tutoring sessions and fun outings. In addition to this role, I have experience babysitting toddlers during college and helping care for my younger cousins, ranging in age from 1 to 12, in my large family. I am CPR certified and passionate about working with children, finding joy in supporting families and creating a positive environment for the kids I care for.

Kathy only worked with us for a week - I'm sure over a longer acquaintance she would have earned that fifth star. She was good to work with: thoughtful, vigilant, and affectionate. She looked after my two month old in a nanny share with a 6 month old, so she definitely had her hands full, but was unflappable despite all their needs.

Deanna worked with our family for nearly six years, beginning when our two children were just one and two years old. From the very start, she was a devoted mother’s helper who truly loved and cared for our children through their earliest and most formative years. She consistently demonstrated kindness, patience, and thoughtfulness in everything she did. Deanna was exceptionally reliable, flexible, and deeply dedicated to our family. Whenever we needed extra support—whether due to illness, unexpected circumstances, or schedule changes—she was always there for us. Her willingness to step in and help during challenging times meant more to us than we can fully express. She safely drove our children, cared for them when they were sick, and was an incredible source of stability and support throughout the COVID period and beyond. Deanna consistently went above and beyond her core responsibilities—preparing meals, helping with laundry and sorting clothes, unpacking school and activity bags, and keeping our home organized and running smoothly. Deanna also played a significant role in our children’s development. She mentored them with homework, reinforced good manners and responsibility, and worked closely with us to work through behavioral challenges with care, patience, and consistency. She regularly took them on outings and found thoughtful ways to engage them emotionally, socially, and intellectually. In addition, Deanna was a tremendous logistical support for our family. She helped arrange and plan for vacations, prepared the children for travel, and managed busy schedules with ease, always anticipating what needed to be done. We feel incredibly fortunate to have had Deanna as part of our family for so many years. She made a lasting impact on our children and our household as a whole. We recommend Deanna without hesitation and with the highest confidence—any family would be truly lucky to have her.

Hi, I am 28 years old with several years of childcare experience across different age groups, from infants to teenagers. I worked as an au pair in Ireland for 8 months, caring for two boys (ages 6 and 13). In Germany, I was a babysitter for 2 years, primarily caring for three children between 0–3 years old, which gave me strong experience with younger children and daily routines. At the moment, I work as a nanny in the USA while studying for my bachelor’s degree toward veterinary school. I help with school drop-offs, after-school care, and full-day care when needed for two children (ages 1.5 and 9), making sure they stay engaged, follow routines, and feel supported throughout the day. I also have 4 years of lifeguarding experience, am a strong swimmer, and am trained in CPR. I am comfortable supervising children around water and can help them build confidence with basic swimming skills. I am reliable, responsible, and organized, and I take my role seriously. I am also open to helping with light household tasks such as cleaning, dishes, and dog walking.😊

Hi, I’m a nanny. I have 25+ years experience in childcare. I’ve been working primarily with infants up until the age of three when they go to primary school lately.. I believe in helping you to raise your children in the style in which you prefer to create some consistency for the children. I am open to learning new things and open to making suggestions with my years of experience if you so desire. I am CPR and first aid trained. I have taken some classes on child and infant development. I love working with children and helping them to discover the world around them. It’s so exciting to see children discover new things and just start to use those new things they learn. I absolutely love doing arts and crafts with any aged children, singing, reading playing outdoor outdoors when weather permitted. I believe there needs to be good communication between all caregivers to create the consistency for the child and it makes it easier for transition from one caregiver to the other. I am looking for a part-time work, preferably a full days a few days a week, but I am open to other options. I have a four hour minimum unless it’s right here in my hometown. I would love to hear more about your wants and desires and a childcare provider. I look forward to hearing from you and hope that we can discuss further the possibility of working together.
